The following is an article that will appear in this week’s electronic edition of The Tahlequah Christian.  It’s yet another reminder that each and every one of us with a computer and an internet connection can make a difference in small ways in the world around us.

If you’re one of the folks who have stepped far enough into the digital age to turn on your computer to play solitaire, then you have an opportunity to play a game that will do some good.  FreeRice.com offers a collection of games that will both sharpen your mind and help feed the hungry.  Originally launched as a vocabulary game where you matched a word with its meaning, FreeRice.com now offers games where you can identify famous paintings, test out your math skills, see how good you are at a foreign language, try your hand at world geography, or even beef of your knowledge of the periodic table of elements!  And the best part is that for every correct answer you donate another ten grains of rice to the UN World Food Program.  So consider turning what might be a bad habit into a good one by exercising your mind and helping feed those who hunger – and carry this habit with even after Lent has come to a close.
